:1,2,601,1202
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6723,1202 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6723,1202 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 241,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 134237
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/134237
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6723/241,1202/557 is 1/134237
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 241,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,557) = ( 241 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(241,557) = 134237 / 1
LCM(241,557) = 134237
